This is as intended, and is indeed a change in behavior. I understand it could cause trouble for some applications, but is a lot cleaner and more efficient.
but it prevents to move applications from TC4 to TC5 since they dont work out-of-the-box as before, f.e. *.war. isnt there a setting to archive the old behaviour??
No. You're the first to ask, which means there's virtually no demand for this, and the new behavior solves long standing issues.
I don't think anybody ever said TC 5 would run any webapp unchanged. There were a significant amount of spec clarifications and behavior changes (I might add the new behaviors are all needed changes).
other than that, I've tested with a few other apps which work fine so far...
just found another small issue (seen on Linux and Win32) - the link on the Tomcat main page to webdav now produces a directory listing rather than call index.html
This is normal as well.
